    The guys an ex politician, so what?

    As long as he runs our club well and does the right things by Celtic I'm happy.

    We accept players who we all know are huns as long as they give their all to the cause yet we cant accept a board member due to politics?

    Maybe he had a confidentiality agreement with the company? The PLC has many trade secrets and confidentiality agreements with personnel at Celtic. Other companies are no different.

    Reid has since declared his relationship with Desmond and retrospectively, he had nothing to hide, nothing bad was going on so its a storm in a teacup you are trying to make.

    Its not the fact that he is an ex-politician. Its what he campaigned and stood up for that is my problem.

    Also, a player is different. A player is not at the forefront of the running of our club.

    As Dempsey said, there may have been contractual reasons why he couldn't speak about it.

    You have your own agendas against the guy mate and for me its just a pretty lame duck excuse for you to have a pop at him.

    If the team are winning on the park Im happy.

    So why can we accept a player with UVF tattoos then and countless other well known huns down the years who have pulled on the hoops? They all stood as fans screaming about being up to their knees in * blood.

    How much more of at the forefront of a football team can you be than a player?

    For a person that didnt know what a PLC was until the other day, you seem to know it all now :rolleyes:


    If you think that any board member/personnel is obliged to answer every question truthfully when asked you are wrong.

    Strachan didnt reveal the extend of the damage to moral that Tommy Burn's cancer fight was having on the team, and Brown's sister's terminal cancer was having on him, he never used it as an excuse, never. Not saying anything was the best thing to do and take the huge drop of form on the chin, even though he could have explained it rationally to everyone. He lied to you, do you want him out?

    You dont have all the facts to why Reid denied the relationship with Desmond, neither do I but you've jumped to a completely negetive conclusion. I looked at the legality of his dealings and there wasnt any issues so I have no reason to doubt what he has said about the relationship.

    You have an alternative agenda and you are looking for any type of excuse for a reason to sling mud.

    I never said the forefront of the football team. I said the forefront of the running of the club.

    well thats certainly not the way i like to come across but its an internet forum if thats the way people see me then so be it im sure ill still sleep at night. if people start having a pop at me for a genuine poll well im going to defend myself.

    And if thats the only input you have to the thread then youd be best off not switching on your computer, that comments makes you come across as a right *.

    all I was doing was a poll, which i havent seen a thread on so its certainly not done to death. This is a forum and I want to know how the people of it feel about the Chairman of the club they support.

    Im a normal football fan, i dont bring politics or religion into CP or even onto this forum, show me a post or thread where I have done so please. I asked for this not to be a political agenda it seems its you and your cronies are the ones desperate to constantly hype up JR labelling people who disagree with your views as moronic and so on.
